Big fan of the Saints conspiracy theories. Referees, medical professionals, who’s next? The government?

Well no, because if they can't put out a competitive side, nobody will get anything out of it.

You have to be careful where you deploy that argument.

The Australians could use it one day as an an excuse to avoid playing England, and then we could just sack off international Rugby League entirely.

If theres no French players better than Liam Kay and Junior Moors they are in trouble!

That would be the Liam Kay averaging two tries. game at present Try and think before you post, France could only wish for a French winger as prolific as Kay.

No interest in this, it's a dog's dinner of  a non event, typical of RL that's purpose is to lead into a tournament that I don't think will happen this year.

You can express what opinion you like about that view but I won't be saying anything else, just not interested.

Fouad Yaha has 58 tries in Super League. Kay, 6. I think they wouldn’t need to wish for long.

I’m in Warrington for this. Just had an email saying no food or drink on sale at the HJ and can’t nip out and come back in again. 

4+ hours with no ale

I’d love to see Welsby have a runout in the halves.

'Having a run out in the halves' is taking us back to 1981, not 2021.  

What we want is a balanced side that has players in established positions.

Console yourself by counting the empty seats (just like the good old days  )

[Man of Kent]

Warrington seem to have ruined their otherwise great South Stand by sticking a gantry about a dozen rows into the middle of it. Is that a permanent thing?  

[Sir Kevin Sinfield]

Absolutely shocking Saints are withdrawing/holding back players left right and centre when Saints don’t even have a game this weekend. Leeds, Warrington and Wigan all have 5? Players in this game as well as a club match this weekend and they haven’t withdrawn players.

Have Australia consistently pasted us? I know they've had the occasional big score, but they haven't consistently beaten us.

 

And we've always selected our strongest side against them, unlike France who can't select their full contingent half the time.

Genuine question, when did England (not Great Britain) last beat Australia?

And of course the big point is that England v Australia makes money and attracts crowds.
